Open call for a 2-year post-doc position: We are looking for a skilled and passionate candidate with strong experience in organometallic chemistry to develop the catalytic activation of C–C bonds in non-aromatic and unstrained systems by the underdeveloped niobium catalysis.
The position, powered by the FIS3 Starting Grant, has a duration of two years – ideally starting in June 2026 but negotiable – and will be held in a brand-new department, located in a recently opened campus and featuring first-class facilities.
If you are interested, please, reach Ciro with your CV, cover letter, and reference letter from your PhD or post-doc supervisor.
PhD positions available from 2027: We are looking for two motivated PhD candidates interested in the development of novel synthetic methodologies in the new, thrilling, and underdeveloped field of niobium catalysis. The programme will be involving the study of this unprecedented platform on both synthetic and mechanistic point of view.
